How it works

Forbidden Ritual is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Create Area Effect (effect type 179).
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Forbidden Ritual.

What it does

Forbidden Ritual is a spell with an instant cast, a range of 100 yards and an effect that lasts until cancelled. When cast it has a Create Area Effect effect. It also casts Forbidden Ritual (record #440606).

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the current retail game build. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
